There are requests to keep the transport separate in order to allow
other possible transports like virtio. So let us keep the SMCCC transport
specific routines abstracted.
It is kept simple for now. Once we add another transport, we can develop
better abstraction.

This just add a basic driver that sets up the transport(e.g. SMCCC),
checks the FFA version implemented, get the partition ID for self and
sets up the Tx/Rx buffers for communication.

The Arm FF for Armv8-A specification has concept of endpoints or
partitions. In the Normal world, a partition could be a VM when
the Virtualization extension is enabled or the kernel itself.
In order to handle multiple partitions, we can create a FFA device for
each such partition on a dedicated FFA bus. Similarly, different drivers
requiring FFA transport can be registered on the same bus. We can match
the device and drivers using UUID. This is mostly for the in-kernel
users with FFA drivers.
